Gmail update: Reach more people you know
Ever wanted to email someone you know, but haven't yet exchanged email addresses?
Starting this week, when you're composing a new email, Gmail will suggest your Google+
connections as recipients, even if you haven't exchanged email addresses yet.
How it works with email addresses
Emailing Google+ connections works a bit
differently to protect the privacy of email addresses.
Your email address isn't visible to your Google+
connections until you send them an email, and their
email addresses are not visible to you until they
respond.
Receiving email from people outside your circles
If you receive an email from someone outside your
circles, it will be filtered into the Social category of
the inbox (if enabled) and only after you respond or
add them to your circles, can they start another
conversation with you.
How to control who can contact you
You're in control of whether people can reach you
with a new setting in Gmail on the desktop. To learn
more, check out the Help Center.
